#internationalbereavedmothersday Who knew? Kind of dread next Sunday - Mother's Day in Canada. Another painful reminder of the burden that my wife must carry daily; yet another reminder of her broken heart.

I missed you quietly today. So quietly that no one noticed.

I missed you as I climbed out of bed and as I brushed my teeth; when I waited at the lights on the drive into work and as I heard the rain outside my window.

I missed you as I ordered lunch and as I kicked off my shoes…

With represenation from Trevor Jain. Thank you! atlantic.ctvnews.ca/more/it-s-not-…

I would add vision, passion and political will.

What an absolute honour to receive this award named after alan drummond, one of emergency medicine’s most tireless advocates. I will continue to aspire to live up to the example that he continues to set for emergency physicians across the country.

Huge congratulations to Dr. Shazma Mithani!
🙏for spreading info & countering misinformation on the world’s in-hospital & out-of-hospital emergencies. 3 cheers to your work & to the lifetime of advocacy that has now walked alan drummond’s name onto your résumé 😊 CAEP

Hippocratic Oath? From you? You're killing me. I see a well-deserved lawsuit coming your way

Dr. Mithani deserves this award for all her hard work. Many of us secretly wanted the co-winner of the Dr. Alan Drummond Advocacy Award to be Dr. Alan Drummond. Both physicians are best of the nation. Dr. Shazma Mithani alan drummond CAEP

Congrats to all the award winners, especially to Dr. Brian Holroyd. I feel incredibly honored and privileged to have had the opportunity to learn from him. He is not only an exceptional ED physician but also a great human and leader. CAEP

A very special congrats to Dr. Brian Holroyd for his CAEP Presidents award. Amongst many other accolades/accomplishments, the founding senior medical director of the Emergency SCN (@AHS_media). He had a tremendous impact on the direction of Emergency Medicine in AB.

Congratulations. So well deserved.

What an unexpected surprise and honor!! It truly means a lot to me to receive this award by the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians. You have my word that I will continue reporting without fear or favor on Canada's pressing health-care issues.

alan drummond For those of us that are physiatrists the only medical specialty that specializes in spinal cord injury. We face limited support from governments. These patient should be hospitalized at home whenever possible we don’t supply many of them with their catheters and other supplies
